Byrd would force another rotator cuff injury.

Hard to come up with a fight that could potentially be duller than this, I'll take Byrd.

This would be an absolutely horrendous fight. I see it being one of those fights in which the boxing purists favor Byrd, but the judges like Sultan's aggression and his harder punches, despite landing fewer. Ibragimov by decision.

Do you think Sultan would be aggressive? I could see Byrd's speed shelling him up but good. Anyway, just thinking about these two in the ring after I finished watching Kevin Johnson might put me in a coma.

Byrd by conclusive decision, he was significantly faster and better, as well as more active, which says a hell of a lot.

This would be about as exciting of a fight as sitting in the backyard and literally waiting for the lawn to grow. But I'll go with Byrd. He was just a higher class of fighter.
